    The Move-In

    You’ve spent the week adjusting to island life by getting to know one another, figuring out what to do with all those presents, gathering your resources and selling them off to Tom Nook. The weekend is finally here, though, and that’s something to celebrate!

    ...But when you wake up on Saturday, whenever that may be, the environment you’re in is not the tent you remember falling asleep in. Rather, you’re inside of some kind of house with a white wall and ceiling, wood lined across the bottom of the walls. The floor is wood, too, shiny and glossy as the sun rays shine through the one window in your house. Whatever you had lying out in your tents is still arranged in the same general order you had your things in before. Furthermore, you’re still lying on your camping cots with the same people who fell asleep in the tent with you, but if you decide to get up and investigate, you’ll find two other rooms other than the one you’re in.

    Facing the door from the inside, if you look to your left, you’ll find...a bathroom! It’s got a basic toilet, sink, and a bathtub with a showerhead for you to use. There are also enough bath towels for each person hanging on a towel rack. The walls are white but the floor in here is tiled instead of wooden. The room across the bathroom, however, is empty. It has the same wallpaper and flooring as the main room you found yourself in.

    It’s a small, comfy place you’re staying in, but the real question is… When did this happen? Only one way to find out.

    And sure enough, if you’re awake by nine AM, Tom Nook will rally everyone to Resident Services for his morning announcements.

    “Good morning, everyone, and welcome to your first weekend on Isle Sonrisa! As you’ve all probably already noticed by now, we were able to upgrade your tents last night into houses! Don’t worry, there is no fee for this upgrade -- but now you finally have a place where you can decorate your house with all the furniture you were able to get in the mail. For any excess items you may have… Might I suggest a yard sard of some sort, hm?”

    He tilts his head a little. He thinks this is a good idea!

    “Alternatively, houses all come with storage. There’s a small little storage shed in the back of everyone’s houses that can fit many, many items. If you don’t want to sell your items to me or hand them off to someone else, you can store them inside of there.”

    Tom Nook nods his head. “Yes, yes. I’d like to suggest that you all take this weekend to decide how to arrange the items you’ve gotten in the mail...and one more thing about those items: You can put them outside, too. For example, oh, an exercise area might be nice…” He sounds a little wistful when he says it, but promptly shakes his head afterwards.

    “Ah-! Before I forget...erm… It seems as though one of our friends has unexpectedly left the island. We don’t know where or how he left, you see...but Heimdall is no longer here. We’re still working on figuring out a way to send you all home, and we’re trying to track him down, too.”

    He looks very guilty about that, at least. But the moment passes, and he perks up again, smiling at everyone as best as he can. “Alright, that’s it! You can spend the weekend however you’d like to, but with your new homes being built and all the furniture some of you have received, well… It may be a good idea to work on that, no?”


    (OOC: Welcome to your first event log! Any questions can be directed to the FAQ. We will no longer be posting log questions and will be funneling them to the FAQ instead for easier access.

    Let us know if you have any questions, as always! NPCing will be available after ~3:30PM EST today.)

[ Bless Serval, we need good people like her to balance out people like Minato ]

Mm... Maybe? A human or a robot... It reminds me of a friend back home.
sugooooooooi: Scared gasp, looking sideways. (no way)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-04 09:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Really? How? Do they dress like that?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Long flowy robes. Super comfortable looking. He prefers yellow over red, though.

[ Minato would wear poofy pants like this? absolutely ]
sugooooooooi: Arms open. (there's a whole world out there)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-04 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, okay! The people here wear a lot of interesting things, too. I think so, anyway.

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I think so too. What about you- you haven't wanted to wear anything else?

[ He'd offer clothes but he just has this weird wetsuit left of the clothes he's found. ]
sugooooooooi: Boarding the bus with an adventurous smile. (ready to embark)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-04 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I've always worn this! I actually didn't know you could take it off until recently. Kaban-chan figured that out when we went to the hot springs. She's really smart.

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
[ I--

oh

hm. ]


I see. She sure is really smart. You've had your clothes for a long time then, huh? Since you were born?
sugooooooooi: Simple smile. (ehe)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-04 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, since I was first born as a Friend! That's how it works for all of us. There's a lot of things I thought were just normal, but I guess they're not the same for everyone.

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-04 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Minato just sort of

nods. There's nothing else he can do. ]


I guess not. Would you want to wear anything else, though? You don't have to get rid of your old clothes.
sugooooooooi: Calling out and reaching or pointing. (oh!!!)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-05 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno! I haven't really thought about it. But you like other stuff, right?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-05 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
Uh. In general? Yeah. I like other stuff. New experiences, things I've never seen before.

[ Weird clothes. Not his personal style, but he wouldn't kick up such a fuss over wearing whatever fits. ]
sugooooooooi: Closed-eyes smiling. (take it easy)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-05 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Then this place must be really fun for you! It is for me, too. Once we go back home, I want to bring my friends here to see it!

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-05 01:36 am (UTC)(link)
Kinda, yeah. Your friends wanted to see humans, right? Maybe this is where they all went.
sugooooooooi: Smiling with head tilted in the bus. (this is fun)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-05 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe! If you're from when there were lots of humans, maybe a bunch of them travelled to places like this.

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-05 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
Hm...

[ Somehow, he doubts it. When the world ends, all their corpses are going to rot on the streets, not be sucked up through some dimensional door and dumped onto a nice little island like this one. ]

Maybe.

[ Supports his purgatory theory, despite all of Tom Nook's denials. ]
sugooooooooi: Laying down, pondering something. (just a thought)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-05 01:45 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds a lot nicer than just going extinct. But maybe we'll find out one day! Right?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-05 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Right. Whatever happens, I'll know in two months. Minus a week, now.
sugooooooooi: Talking about something she's looking warily at. (hard out here when you can't read)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-05 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Do you think that's when we go home?

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-05 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
[ He shakes his head. ]

It's when everybody back home is supposed to... die. I'd wanted to spend those last few weeks with my friends, but...

[ He shrugs. Stuck here now, nothing he can do about it. ]
sugooooooooi: Hugging and smiling. (doki)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-06 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
[You're getting hugged, Minato, Serval doesn't make the rules.]

You can't do anything about that? That's so scary! It's unfair!

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-07 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...Oh.

He freezes up, surprised when Serval hugs him, stiff as a board the entire time until she lets go, as if afraid to relax into the hug. Afraid to face the situation as how terrible it really is. Gotta be strong and stoic and don't make people worry, don't cause trouble. ]


It's okay. It's... This is how it should be. It's the same for the humanity you know too, isn't it?
sugooooooooi: Fretting over something. (gulp)

[personal profile] sugooooooooi 2020-07-07 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
But we don't know that for sure! It's just a theory the Professor has. That's why Kaban-chan and I are still trying to find out if there are still humans out there!

[personal profile] compendiem 2020-07-07 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. I guess it's still up in the air, then. It'd be nice if everybody weren't all dead in the future.
